[QUOTE="Lesleywo, post: 616542, member: 112692"] Hi all .... I have insulin resistance, Addisons Disease and Hashimoto's Disease and have been under an Endocrinologist for about 16 years. About 3 years ago he tested me for a lot of different autoimmune diseases and I tested highly positive to GAD ... the range was less than 10 and my reading was 519. He asked if there was any Type 1 in my family - my Mum had an Aunt and Uncle who both were diabetic but not sure which type. Mum diagnosed with Type 2 (diet only) when she was 77 - unfortunately she died a few years back and I have no way of finding out whether the rels were Type 1 or 2. I am having GAD and C-Peptide test done in November .. just wondering in the meantime .... what do you think my likelihood of getting LADA would be? At present my bloods are HBAlc 5.8%, fasting BS 4.5. Also, for those with LADA, were your GAD levels very high and if so, how high? Thanks ever so, Lesley [/QUOTE]
